If the Chinese men's basketball team can include Cheng Jie and Wang Meng in the national team list in this Asian Championships, and give a lot of playing time as the main force, then the Chinese men's basketball team will still have the opportunity to participate in the 14 men's basketball World Cup.

However, the list of the Chinese men's basketball team to compete in the Asian Championships was determined before Cheng Jie and Wang Meng returned to China, and the members of the national team list were exactly the same as the national team that stopped in the quarterfinals in another time and space in Wang Xiao's memory.

And the coach of this national team is still Greek basketball coach Panayotis. Yannakis.

In this way, the results of this Chinese men's basketball team speak for themselves.

Even if they have a big brother Yi Jianlian who is better than another time and space, it will be useless, after all, Yi Jianlian only accepted the training bonus of the training module, and his own potential has not been improved......

……

At home, Wang Xiao spent a leisurely and relaxing holiday.

During this holiday, the time feels like it is from mid-July to the end of August.

The NBA Summer League is over, and so is the Asian Championship.

Just like another time and space, the Chinese men's basketball team fell in the game of eight into four, which surprised everyone.

As the team's head coach, Giannakis was saddled with the black cauldron of failure.

What's even more embarrassing is that after stepping down as the head coach of the national team, Giannakis refused to shake hands with the vice president of the basketball association in front of many people, and the conflict between the two became public.

For a time, conspiracy theories such as power struggles emerged one after another.

Wang Xiao is not interested in these, he only knows that the painful defeat in the Asian Championships this time is another heavy blow to the prestige of the Basketball Association.

This is good news for Wang Xiao, because there is no harm without comparison.

On the one hand, the Chinese men's basketball team, which has changed coaches frequently but has a poor record, and on the other hand, it is a championship coach who has won the championship honor in top basketball events such as the NBA for two consecutive years.

Fans don't care what the reason and reason for the Basketball Association not to let Wang Xiao be the head coach, they only know that Huaxia has such a powerful head coach as Wang Xiao, and has also made it clear that he is willing to coach the national team, but the Basketball Association is unwilling to use Wang Xiao.

Even if the power of the ordinary people's words cannot have any real impact, they will still exert a certain amount of pressure.

And at this time, Wang Xiao doesn't need to do anything, he just needs to sit on the wall and watch, and then lead the Wizards team to win the third championship and establish a dynasty, and the results will become his best propaganda weapon!

……

In early September, Wang Xiao boarded a plane to the United States.

Originally, according to the league's schedule, Wang Xiao waited until mid-September to arrive at the team to report.

But a phone call made Wang Xiao have to make arrangements in advance.

The caller was the second generation of local tyrants, Ma Luoli. Adnams, she called Wang Xiao to ask Wang Xiao to fulfill his promise at the draft......

"Uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time, I've already figured out what you want to do for me!" On the phone was Mallory's silver-bell-like voice. "It's my birthday in a week, and I want to show my face in front of my friends, can you help me invite some NBA stars to my birthday party?"

……

Because of this call, Wang Xiao had to go to the United States in advance to plan.

Originally, according to his intentions, just make a phone call and let Curry, Jeremy Lin and others participate, but Mallory insisted that he also participate, saying that it was cooler to have a friend of an NBA head coach.

Wang Xiao didn't want to be called a liar by this little girl anymore, so she could only fly to New York to attend Mallory's birthday party.

As a head coach who has coached in the league for several years, although Wang Xiao's popularity is average, he also has a group of stars who have a good relationship with him.

Curry, George, Thompson, Leonard and others of the Wizards naturally don't need to say, and Jeremy Lin is the same, as long as Wang Xiao has a phone call, he must come to cheer.

And the stars who went out from the Wizards also gave Wang Xiao this face, such as Harden, Jordan Jr., McGee and others......

What surprised Wang Xiao was that Jordan Jr.'s teammate, Durant, the core player of the Trail Blazers, actually took the initiative to contact Wang Xiao after hearing about this incident and expressed his willingness to help him with this.

The Trail Blazers lost to the Wizards for the second year in a row, and Durant should logically hate the Wizards and the team's head coach Wang Xiao.

But in fact, Durant's NBA champion title was completely given to him by Wang Xiao, and at that time, only Wang Xiao was optimistic that he would become a top superstar in the league.

So Durant has always had a good impression of Wang Xiao.

As a result, Mallory's birthday party was star-studded.

"OMG! That's Curry! And Durant! I'm looking for them to sign it! ”

"Harden! Can I take a picture with your beard......"

……

"Uncle, thank you, I'm very happy this birthday!"

For 18-year-old Mallori, this birthday is very unique, because even if she has a local daddy, there is no way for her birthday party to have so many NBA stars, after all, her daddy has not been able to buy the NBA team.

"Really? Just be happy, happy birthday. ”

Wang Xiao, who was dressed in casual clothes, picked up a drink and smiled at Ma Luoli.

Ma Luoli, who has just passed her 18th birthday, looks more and more slim, and a banquet evening dress shows her graceful figure, Wang Xiao only found out at this time that this little girl in his eyes may be better than many girls over 20 years old in China......

Mallory also took a drink, took a sip, and smiled without saying a word.

She actually only said half of what she said just now.

She was indeed very happy to have so many NBA stars attend her birthday party, but what made her even happier was that Wang Xiao would go to great lengths to help her call so many stars because of a half-joking remark.

"You know what? My father wants to buy an NBA team, so I might as well ask him to buy the Wizards. ”

Mallory said suddenly.

Wang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but immediately laughed.

"I'm afraid it's hard to ......."

Wang Xiao remembers that Mallory's father bought the Bucks as a joint venture with a person, and the two paid a total of about $550 million.

In '09, the Wizards were defeated by Ted. When Leonsis bought it, it was almost more than $500 million.

Four years have passed, and the Wizards' record has soared with his arrival, not only winning two NBA championships, but also having several stars with good commercial value in the team, and now the market value of the Wizards has been more than 800 million.
